Surgical outcomes of bridge-to-bridge therapy with extracorporeal left ventricular assist device for acute myocardial infarction in cardiogenic shock

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background Extracorporeal left ventricular assist device is often required for acute myocardial infarction patients in cardiogenic shock when temporary mechanical circulatory support fails to provide hemodynamic stabilization.

Left ventricular assist devices [PDF]

Journal of the Intensive Care Society, 2020
Background There is a growing population of patients in the UK with advanced heart failure who are receiving a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a bridge to transplant. This is due to the plateauing number of heart transplantations and the increasing evidence of the effectiveness of these devices.

Left Ventricular Assist Devices and the Kidney [PDF]

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2017
Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are common and implantation carries risk of AKI. LVADs are used as a bridge to heart transplantation or as destination therapy. Patients with refractory heart failure that develop chronic cardiorenal syndrome and CKD often improve after LVAD placement. Nevertheless, reversibility of CKD is hard to predict.

Cost-effectiveness of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) for patients with advanced heart failure : analysis of the British NHS Bridge to Transplant (BTT) program [PDF]

, 2014
Background: A previous cost-effectiveness analysis showed that bridge to transplant (BTT) with early design left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) for advanced heart failure was more expensive than medical management while appearing less beneficial ...

Concomitant tricuspid valve repair in left ventricular assist device implantation may increase the risk for temporary right ventricular support but does not impact overall outcomes. [PDF]

, 2022
OBJECTIVES Tricuspid valve repair in left ventricular assist device implantation continues to pose a challenge and may impact the occurrence of early and late right heart failure. We investigated the effects of concomitant tricuspid repair on clinical

Design and characteristics of the prophylactic intra‐operative ventricular arrhythmia ablation in high‐risk LVAD candidates (PIVATAL) trial

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2023
Background The use of a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) in patients with advanced heart failure refractory to optimal medical management has progressed steadily over the past two decades. Data have demonstrated reduced LVAD efficacy, worse clinical
